Still no Stardock so I guess there's no chance of a Star Control reboot teaser.

Do you know who Day9 is?
Yeah, I've seen some of his Starcraft vids.

Well, he's really hard working and has a good understanding of the industry I think. I think he would make a perfect host. He's really genuine.
Hmm, I wonder what do you have to announce... if it's as good as CSD I'm in.

Completely different. Day9 going to be great.

Since Splash Damage will be there to talk about Dirty Bomb, what else could Nexon talk about? Is that GitS game coming to the West?

Maybe they are just supporting Splash Damage.
Day9 is genuine, I think he's more than up for the task. He has a great personality and can obviously cast, he's good people.
Ya, it is supposed to come out in the west before the worldwide release iirc.
Nexon is the publisher for CliffyB's new game right? I guess we can expect Project Bluestreak in some form since they did recently show off some in-engine stuff.

Looked up the Nexon investor call, this is what they have planned for the year and onward. Also they have a yet to be announced game by UFG (Sleeping Dogs) coming up.
might be they're just going to give a general rundown on their plans and highlight Dirty Bomb and Bluestreak
Yes. CliffyB's going to be there though.

That's great, i hope it'll be the start of a great era for PC gaming, DirectX 12 should help a lot too, weird not to see Nvidia among those names, a GTX 980ti and R9 390X presentation on the same stage at E3' PC conference would be great.
Plus i'm still waiting for AMD or Nvidia to finally create a development team to make their own PC exclusive games

Man, I'm not sure how I feel about Cliffyb being there.

Well, considering AMD is sponsoring this, not surprised haha.

He has a new game to show off. What's the problem?

He said some pretty negative things in the past about PC gaming. It was a long time ago and he has since changed his tune but it will still feel a bit weird to see him on stage.

Now I don't want him there. The opportunity to make money probably changed his tune.
Glad it exists, been a long time coming, and it can't be worse than Ubisoft's press conference.
What matters to me is they don't just bring on companies to shill existing products, small updates, DLC or expansions. I wanna see a good amount of new stuff, and would like more to see more indie devs.
The PC has more releases than any of the 3 console makers, and more chances a few of those releases are amazing, so I wanna see that on display than just echoes of the other conferences using the same games.

Day[9] has hosting experience from casting SC2 tournaments, for example. I think he will do fine. Also, from what I heard, this show will be more like one of those talk shows rather than a traditional press event.
CliffyB said on Twitter today, that E3 wouldn't make sense for them
E3 doesn't make sense for BKP right now.
That said, from industry chats I've had over the last week expect some craziness- on all sides.

So, it's going to be similar to what he did at the Nvidia 24h stream, where talked a bit about what they're doing and how PC is cool etc, but not going to show anything Bluestreak related.
That seems like a good guess. Or just to talk about PC in general, how's it going for them etc

I seriously badly want Puzzle Agent 3 to happen. I love those games

Is Dean Hall still working on DayZ?
Anyone else feel like it's odd having a PC presser and Valve not being there? Considering that I assume more than half of PC gaming is consumed through Steam, not having them part of it feels like a really incomplete conference. Obviously, getting Blizzard is a pretty big deal, assuming they show off something new.

No one from CDPR to talk about a future DX12 patch? Color me disappointed
More seriously that's nice. Need more info on Total Warhammer!

Hoping to see something about Coaster Park Tycoon. I suppose Frontier being there will be about Elite, but it would be so cool to see a small trailer of CPT.
They need all that momentum of RCTW going to suck major balls, and atari fucking it up.
The king is dead, long live the king, and all that.

Ha. Day9 is awesome. He's excellent at providing post game analysis of Starcraft games and he's just a very personal guy in general. Day9 actually has the organizational and people skills to be a host.

Btw is this going to be a stage show or they're going to stream from a room?
AMD is showing off their FIJI gpu. It has to be a stage show.
They rented out a big theater so it's a stage show.

I'm disappointed Valve isn't going to be there but I can't say I'm surprised. I get the impressions that they just don't like doing press or communicating with the public in general. I assume they'll have some kind of event before the Steam machines are released this fall. Hopefully they'll show off a final version of SteamOS and announce more games at some point but who knows.

I wouldn't bet on them making a separate event for Steam Machines.
